What is the difference between an expedition and an exploration?
All journeys should involve travel by personal effort without motorized assistance. An expedition (a trip with a purpose) is a journey where participants stay at different campsites each night. An Exploration (a purpose with a trip) is a journey where participants may make use of a base camp, as long as their purpose involves some aspect of the natural environment. All explorations are to include an element of journeying and at least ten hours are to be spent in this way. All explorations require prior approval from your provincial office.
